Deer Park - Parks & Rec. Survey 2025
Your feedback is important! Planning for our future is essential to improving our quality of life. The City of Deer Park is currently investing in a Splashpad, Skate Park, and Pickleball Courts. The City is updating its Parks and Recreation Plan to make additional recreation improvements. Citizen input will be the foundation of this plan. "What do you want Deer Park's parks, recreation facilities to look like in 10 years." Please answer the following questions to guide our future recreation investment. By completing the survey, you will be entered into a drawing for a $100 dinner certificate. You may only enter one survey. Redundant surveys will result in disqualification and survey removal. The winner will be notified by email in September. You must provide a valid email address to be eligible. For more information about this project or survey, please contact Larry Fetter at 541-561-7617.
